"Howe" about "A" non-expo haul? Fairly Scan Heavy!

[DredJAw]

This mail post is a long time coming. April is exam month so I didn't have much time (nor will) to post a mail haul. Thanks to Kev (The Captain), Tony (4Ant4), and the lads at gamebreakers for some of the following pieces. Here's basically what came in during the dreaded exam month.

2002-03 UD Piece of History "Marks of Distinction" GORDIE HOWE /24

As soon as Kev (The Captain) posted he was selling off his Howes I immediately got in talks with him about this. I've wanted it for a while and the deal was easy as pie. Thanks again bud!

Now for the Vinny portion. I usually can't be bothered to post the dinkier jerseys/parallels but I figure this is a good way to enjoy my collection. On to the scans:

Note the card number.... jersey #: 4/100

Upper Deck SP jersey. There was a time when these sold for $60 but I knew I'd grab one for much less if I waited a bit. Sure enough, mid $20's.

Out of 10:

Is it just me, or are these Beehive 5x7 autos MUCH tougher to find than anticipated? Haven't seen to many of these Vinnys...

Again, note the serial number. 4/10

Lastly, the "A" portion of the post.

The Steen, Brodeur, and Wilson can be made available. Obviously Howe and the Vinny's have found a permanent home.

Thanks for looking. Any comments thanked in advance and appreciated.

Wowie! Nice grabs buddy! The Howe Marks auto. is a beauty! Impressive haul of Vinnys, like the SPGU Quad jersey with Patty on it! Cool to see some "4" serial numbered cards, and yes the "A" letter is pretty sweet

Ern,

Nice haul, I of course like that quad jersey - good thing I already got one at Expo! Do you happen to have the patch version yet? I know that Q had one at the Expo, but the Spezza patch was white, and he seemed to want more for it because the other hacks on the card all had nice patches. Seriously though I think the Vinny patch looked pretty nice.

I'm interested in the Steen.
I have a Kostitsyn and Coburn from the same issue if you're interested... don't know if I have any Vinnie for you, but I can check.

LMK what it will take.
Michael.

PS, the Howe from that POH set is terrific...

Nice stuff Ern, congrats.

Really wanted that By The Letter, but glad that you were able to get it instead of a certain someone.

 

[MGiuseffi1969]

Some very nice pickups as usual Ern. The By the letter is a beauty, but I am really digging the graph on that Beehive Jumbo. It looks like he was having fun signing on something bigger than a card or a sticker. Thanks for the scans. Mike

 

[boyesfan]

Ern....hope exams went well...hope you got an "A"+
and loving the patch cards you picked up...

 

[LSOH]

Ern.

Goin' to have to go with the POH Howe Auto as my favourite

Cheers,
Eli

[TheGriceBoys]

Ern, whatta haul bro! I am impressed, you came strong on this one!

I love that Gordon, as you know you beat me to da punch on it!

I like that Richard Brodeur piece as well, great looking sig that dude has.

Whole lotta Vinny in this one but c'mon, can anything top that By The Letters? I think not.

Thanks for sharing buddy!
